Well if you've known me long enough it is no secrete that my all time favorite video game console was the Sega Dreamcast. No not because of all the typical titles people loved on that system, it was different for me. I never player Soul Caliber or Skies of Arcadia, for me that system was all about five games.

First Toy Commander, I know it seems odd but this game is probably my all time favorite game, now I'm not saying it is the greatest game ever made, I could very well see many people not liking it, but I love it.

The second game is Crazy Taxi another game that I fell in love with for some odd reason. Countless hours hearing that probably insane man screaming on the main menu. "Hey hey it's party time and lets have some fun!"

Third was Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2, this I'm sure needs no introduction. I spent so much time creating parks in that game that I had memory cards just for it.

Forth is Sonic Adventure 2, anybody who has ever owned a Dreamcast should know this one. Basically Sega's answer to Super Mario 64. Really an amazing game, they even remade it for the GameCube some years later. From baby sitting to robot killing this game had it all.

Finally to the entire point of this blog the final game that sparked that passion for the Sega Dreamcast...Vigilante 8 2nd Offense. For me to say that the Dreamcast was my first experience with that game would be a lie, the Nintendo 64 is the system I first got attracted to the Vigilante 8 series from and the Playstation was actually the first system to ever have the game.

Anyway you are all probably wondering what all this means. Well besides giving you an inside look at what my favorite games of the 90s were there is actually a general point to all this.

If that wasn't enough for you, let me spell it out. Vigilante 8 is coming out...again!

Now to be a little more specific it isn't coming to the Dreamcast...no it is dead. It isn't coming to the PlayStation, where it got its start either...and no not the PS3. It is coming to the Xbox 360, and from the title you might have guessed it, it is coming to the Xbox Live Arcade. If you are interested in the game I highly suggest you head over to V8Arcade.com for all the information available.

All I can say is "wow" at this point, it is like they read my mind and decided to make one of my fantasies come true. I would even go as far to say this is my new most anticipated title of 2008, yes more than GTA.

Until next time...that was SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOG!!!
